The Order Button Mystery
One of the most important things any business owner wants is CERTAINTY: certainty about why isn't this product selling as well as I expected it to sell, certainty thanks to split testing about how you can optimize your offer, etc.
And I have this website which only got like 40 visitors per week, which sold a product that only one person per month would buy..which is a very low conversion rate (or so I thought). And I started improving my copy: better guarantee, more bonuses, pressing more emotional hot buttons, etc. and hoped things would improve...but they didn't...which pretty much was against all "copywriting odds" but I checked and doublechecked and did everything by the book.
So I decided to test the order buttons themselves to see IF people would click them or not, so I would know if it's a matter of bad copy or bad order pages..and I was shocked to find out that 80% of the visitors that landed on my sales letter clicked the order button! But here's a mystery for ya: no sales to show for it :confused:
Now I'm faced with the challenge of how to change that and I have my own ideas about it, but I want to know your opinion because I always learn a LOT from the advice given to me on these forums..AND I kind of need an "outside man" because I feel like I'm too much into it to be able to have a pespective on things, an overview you know..
Here are my ideas:
- It could be that people click order but don't buy because my shopping cart asks for a phone number to process orders..which I currently don't explain (and people are very privacy protective with their digits)
- It could be that my cart content simple says -my product here- and doesn't state all the bonuses and thus value people are getting one more time (which means seeing product A = $199 will scare them away)
- I could be the fact that I haven't addressed buying objections well enough for them to convert from prospects into customers
- It could be the order button itself: it currently says "Add To Cart" while I think/feel that "Order Now" would work better
But what do you guys think? I'd love to hear your thoughts on this one and hey..if you need help with getting to this point (and thus with writing good copy)? I'd be happy to return the favor and help YOU!
I have around 9 ideas about what could be the cause, but I need some input here because Im obviously losing dollars while it CAN be avoided..
